We disembarked the ship this morning, and I took the opportunity to get up early and take some pictures of the ship - it looks like we had the ship to ourselves. However, the truth is everyone was up eating breakfast in the Lido, which is a fancy name for stuff your face buffet, and many folks were doing just that. I did get my last couple of pieces of banana bread and a cup of tea to savour in the Winter Garden before continuing with the photography session. Here you see the Grand Lobby, and the Chart Room. Once we covered the hour trip back to the airport and checked into the Hilton, we hopped on the shuttle to take us back into the city for one last time.
We walked around the Colosseum and then walked down to the amazing church of San Giovanni Laterano. This was the church of all churches until the Vatican was built, and home to the Pope. We spent almost 2 hours here enjoying the sculptures, paintings, marble, and it was a real feast for the eyes. Every corner and wall, ceiling and floor was decorated with something. We had pizza for dinner and caught a nice shot of the colosseum at night before returning to the hotel. We are in the air tomorrow, heading home. See you all soon!
